Description
Woodlands Farmhouse is a Grade II listed lobby-entrance house dating from the early 17th century. It is timber framed and plastered, with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The building is aligned approximately northeast to southwest, with a southeast aspect and features a central chimney stack that creates the lobby entrance.
The farmhouse has a central rear wing that forms a T-plan, with extensions on both sides, resulting in a rectangular layout. The northern extension is a lean-to with a catslide roof, while the western extension has a pitched roof that runs parallel to the main block. The house is two storeys high.
On the ground floor, there is a central door with four flush panels and a shallow bracketed hood, flanked by one window on each side, although these windows were boarded over in June 1983. The first floor features three 20th-century casement windows. The central chimney stack has grouped diagonal shafts and was rebuilt in the 19th century.
The northeast and northwest elevations exhibit some weatherboarding. The front range includes edge-halved and bridled scarf joints in the wallplates, although the roof is not accessible. The rear wing displays arched primary bracing in the walls, along with curved queen struts and side purlins that do not have collars.
